September 19 - Neurodiversity Essentials: Time Management Skills
In this workshop, students will explore the basics of time management from a neurodiversity-affirming perspective. We will start by examining how differences in executive functioning, which are common among neurodivergent individuals, can lead to challenges in managing time effectively. Next, we will introduce practical and flexible tools, such as visual schedules, task breakdowns, and prioritization frameworks, that cater to diverse thinking styles. Each participant will receive personalized methods and downloadable worksheets to help them maintain structure, focus, and self-compassion in their time management processes.
October 30 - Storytelling for Self-Care
This workshop focuses on having fun in a safe environment while exploring techniques to reduce anxiety. We will creatively harness the art of storytelling to enhance mental health and wellness. Please remember to bring pens and paper.
November 21 - Open Discussion
December 11 - Journaling Prompts for Self-Care: Embracing Singleness
This workshop invites participants to explore the joys and strengths of being single through intentional journaling. Rather than viewing singleness as a void to be filled, we will reframe it as a time rich with growth, autonomy, and self-discovery. Participants will be guided through thoughtful prompts that encourage self-appreciation, challenge cultural narratives about relationships, and celebrate the unique freedom of living for oneself. Whether single by choice, circumstance, or transition, attendees will leave with a fresh perspective, deeper self-compassion, and journaling practices that affirm their wholeness as individuals.
